Sense of Urgency
To respond appropriately, we need to rethink and redesign.

ReportA Nation at Risk, 1983
Proclaimed a “crisis” in American public education
It described a “rising tide of mediocrity” in our country’s public schools.
America’s economic security was threatened by a low-skill labor force that was no longer competitive in the global marketplace
![Page 7: OBJECTIVE Participants will see connection of societal and educational issues with sense of urgency for school redesign.](https://reader030.fdocuments.in/reader030/viewer/2022032708/56649e605503460f94b5a5e2/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
Bipartisan “Reform” Declarations
A bipartisan national consensus on the importance of ensuring that all students have access to quality schools and a rigorous academic program began to emerge.
In the 1990’s “education reform” had become the top priority for state governments.
In 2001, with the NCLB legislation, the federal government assumed unprecedented authority over our nation’s public schools.
![Page 8: OBJECTIVE Participants will see connection of societal and educational issues with sense of urgency for school redesign.](https://reader030.fdocuments.in/reader030/viewer/2022032708/56649e605503460f94b5a5e2/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
Results
National Assessment of Educational Progress (NAEP) tests suggest some progress in raising students’ math scores at all grade levels in the last dozen years.
However, the average reading scores of both elementary and secondary school age students shows virtually no change since 1980.
(The Nation’s Report Card-2003, Donahue, Daane)

Results
Writing scores increased slightly for fourth and eighth graders
Twelfth graders who scored “below basic,” increased from 22 to 26 percent!
(The Nation’s Report Card: Writing 2002, Persky, Danne, Jin)

“The formulation of the problem is often more essential than the solution” -Einstein
What’s the “PROBLEM?”
What is the crisis in American Public Education all about?
If it ain’t broke,Don’t fix it!
Their schools are the problem,
Not ours!School reform is just another fad!
Incremental change
is the only way to go!
![Page 16: OBJECTIVE Participants will see connection of societal and educational issues with sense of urgency for school redesign.](https://reader030.fdocuments.in/reader030/viewer/2022032708/56649e605503460f94b5a5e2/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
“No Shame, No Blame, No Excuses”
Reframing the “problem”
Schools (teachers and parents) are not failing… The system is obsolete.
Reforming our present system isn’t the solution… We need to reinvent it.
![Page 17: OBJECTIVE Participants will see connection of societal and educational issues with sense of urgency for school redesign.](https://reader030.fdocuments.in/reader030/viewer/2022032708/56649e605503460f94b5a5e2/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
21st Century “Basics”
The New Demand of a Knowledge Economy Goes Far Beyond “the
Basics.”
![Page 18: OBJECTIVE Participants will see connection of societal and educational issues with sense of urgency for school redesign.](https://reader030.fdocuments.in/reader030/viewer/2022032708/56649e605503460f94b5a5e2/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
Definitions Have Changed
The competencies that academics and business leaders
now demand are not just the “basics” - the 3 Rs.

The Perception Gap
There is a perception gap between teachers and parents and employers and professors about whether public high school graduates have the skills needed to succeed in the work world.
![Page 24: OBJECTIVE Participants will see connection of societal and educational issues with sense of urgency for school redesign.](https://reader030.fdocuments.in/reader030/viewer/2022032708/56649e605503460f94b5a5e2/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)

New Reality
The realities of today’s economy demand not only a new set of skills but also that they be acquired by all students.
An eighteen-year old who is not college-ready today has effectively been sentenced to a lifetime of marginal employment and second-class citizenship
![Page 28: OBJECTIVE Participants will see connection of societal and educational issues with sense of urgency for school redesign.](https://reader030.fdocuments.in/reader030/viewer/2022032708/56649e605503460f94b5a5e2/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)
Sense of Urgency
This finding suggests that the first task in a successful systemic change process is to generate a greater understanding and urgency for change.
![Page 29: OBJECTIVE Participants will see connection of societal and educational issues with sense of urgency for school redesign.](https://reader030.fdocuments.in/reader030/viewer/2022032708/56649e605503460f94b5a5e2/html5/thumbnails/29.jpg)
Labor Competencies of the New Economy
Adaptability: Creative Thinking and Problem Solving
Group Effectiveness: Interpersonal skills, Negotiation and Teamwork
Influence: Organizational Effectiveness and Leadership
Personal Management: Self-Esteem and Motivation/Goal Setting
Attitude: Positive Cognitive Style

“all students, new skills challenge”

elementary level

Teachers Polled Said…
Students are less motivated to learn traditional academic content
Students lack family support for learningParents fail to set limits and create
structure at homeParents refuse to hold their kids
accountable for their behavior and academic performance
(Johnson and others, Where We Are Now)
![Page 33: OBJECTIVE Participants will see connection of societal and educational issues with sense of urgency for school redesign.](https://reader030.fdocuments.in/reader030/viewer/2022032708/56649e605503460f94b5a5e2/html5/thumbnails/33.jpg)

Parents Polled Said…
Supporting their children’s learning is a significant challenge
They don’t know how to motivate their own children
Raising children today, is a lot harder, compared to when they were growing up.
(Farkas, Johnson, Duffet, Wilson, Vine, A Lot Easier Said Than Done)
![Page 35: OBJECTIVE Participants will see connection of societal and educational issues with sense of urgency for school redesign.](https://reader030.fdocuments.in/reader030/viewer/2022032708/56649e605503460f94b5a5e2/html5/thumbnails/35.jpg)
Parents Agree…
Children today are overindulged and lacking in self-control and self-discipline
Young people show less deference toward authority.
Lack of respect for adults is a significant problem
![Page 36: OBJECTIVE Participants will see connection of societal and educational issues with sense of urgency for school redesign.](https://reader030.fdocuments.in/reader030/viewer/2022032708/56649e605503460f94b5a5e2/html5/thumbnails/36.jpg)
High School Students Said…
They are often bored in classThey want to attend collegeThey need more opportunities for
hands-on learningThey need closer relationships with
teachers who can serve as coaches and advisors
![Page 37: OBJECTIVE Participants will see connection of societal and educational issues with sense of urgency for school redesign.](https://reader030.fdocuments.in/reader030/viewer/2022032708/56649e605503460f94b5a5e2/html5/thumbnails/37.jpg)
Motivation
This question of how to motivate all students to want to learn new skills is rarely raised in the national debate about educational reform.
Overlooking this critical ingredient, motivating all students to reform education, is a serious omission

More Pieces to the Puzzle
Economic transformation to a knowledge economy has been accompanied by deep-seated and less visible social changes that are having significant effects on students and families.
![Page 40: OBJECTIVE Participants will see connection of societal and educational issues with sense of urgency for school redesign.](https://reader030.fdocuments.in/reader030/viewer/2022032708/56649e605503460f94b5a5e2/html5/thumbnails/40.jpg)
More Pieces to the Puzzle
These changes must be taken into consideration as we try to better understand the education challenge facing us.
![Page 41: OBJECTIVE Participants will see connection of societal and educational issues with sense of urgency for school redesign.](https://reader030.fdocuments.in/reader030/viewer/2022032708/56649e605503460f94b5a5e2/html5/thumbnails/41.jpg)
No One is to Blame
All of us who are concerned with education today need to work together to understand the new challenges for teaching, learning and parenting in the twenty-first century.
![Page 42: OBJECTIVE Participants will see connection of societal and educational issues with sense of urgency for school redesign.](https://reader030.fdocuments.in/reader030/viewer/2022032708/56649e605503460f94b5a5e2/html5/thumbnails/42.jpg)
Unprecedented Demands
The need for a dramatically more skilled and highly educated workforce in a global economy-combined with profound changes in students’ and families’ life circumstances-have created unprecedented demands on education leaders.
![Page 43: OBJECTIVE Participants will see connection of societal and educational issues with sense of urgency for school redesign.](https://reader030.fdocuments.in/reader030/viewer/2022032708/56649e605503460f94b5a5e2/html5/thumbnails/43.jpg)
A Theory of Change
Student achievement will not improve unless and until teaching improves. Higher standards, more testing and small learning communities do not by themselves, improve teaching
Teachers, working alone, with little or no feedback on their instruction, will not be able to improve significantly- no matter how much professional development they receive
The challenge of change leadership is to create a “system” for continuous improvement of instruction, supervision, and instructional leadership.
